Sorry for the late reply. Yes, so here the area of water is defined by
a multipolygon as natural=water, with no coastline tag around the
edges of the water, but instead you just cut the coastline across the
river mouth/entrance.

When this was tried for some areas in my local area with natural=bay
instead of natural=water, with no coastline tag around the edge, and
instead cutting the coastline across the entrance, the bay rendered in
Mapnik as land, not water. I'm thinking this a bug in mapnik that I
should report, but I'm not really sure.

Yeh, in this example you can see that Mapnik doesn't render the
natural=bay area filled with blue, it just renders the name.
